'Searching for Jimmy Page' chronicles 18-year-old Luna's transatlantic quest from her family's farm in eastern North Carolina to England as she embarks on a captivating journey to locate Led Zeppelin's iconic guitarist, Jimmy Page, in an effort to unravel a compelling family mystery.
Searching For Jimmy Page
by Christy Alexander Hallberg
Genre: Literary Fiction, Mystery
The unraveling of eighteen-year-old Luna Kane’s haunted past begins in the winter of 1988, when her dying great-grandfather, a self-proclaimed faith healer, claims he hears phantom owls crying in the night. “Them owls, like music. Can you hear the music?” he implores her in his final moments, triggering Luna’s repressed memory of her dead mother’s obsession with Jimmy Page, Led Zeppelin’s legendary guitar wizard.
Desperate to learn the truth about her mother’s suicide, to tease fact from family lore in order to weave her own personal narrative, Luna embarks on a pilgrimage from her family’s farm in the pines of eastern North Carolina to England, to search for the man whose music her mother held sacred, Jimmy Page.
